texts: <mask>, also known as <mask>, was a b. A Russian politician and businessman was born on August 15, 1956. In 2012 he was described by The Moscow Times as one of parliament's most vocal and charismatic critics of Putin. A degree in languages, an English specialist, was given to him by the Kolomna State Pedagogical Institute. He speaks both languages. He joined the Communist Party after serving in the Soviet Army. He worked for the Communist Party in Komsomol as an instructor and later as the head of the operational and defense-mass work department.He joined the KGB in 1981 and worked there for a decade before being promoted to lieutenant colonel. He worked in the Office of Counterintelligence Operations for the KGB at Moscow city and Moscow oblast in 1989. He graduated from the Red Banner Institute in 1989. Yu. V. Andropov. He left the Russian Bureau of Criminal Procedure in Moscow and the Moscow Region in 1992 and formed his own security company. He held a post in the Federal Security Service and was on an advisory board with other heads of private security companies.He was elected to the position of vice-president of the Moscow International Fund for the promotion of UNESCO in 1999. The People's Party of the Russian Federation elected him to the State Duma in a by-election in the 106th District on 18 March 2001. The seat was won in the legislative elections in 2003 and 2007. During the 2002 Moscow theater hostage crisis, he was the deputy chairman of the parliamentary Committee on Security. He blamed the failure of security forces to prevent the destruction of state security institutions after the fall of the Soviet Union. In 2004, he denied that Russia was responsible for the death of the Chechen president. After the Chechen rebels killed 90 people at police facilities in Ingushetia, President Putin fired top military officials.He stated that "This will go on until we ourselves learn how to prevent terrorist acts until we learn how to carry out effective operations to destroy terrorists" and called for better pay for security forces to attract better quality personnel and prevent corruption. He was in favor of a law that allowed undercover security officers to commit illegal acts such as buying guns or drugs. Following a poor performance by the People's Party in the recent legislative elections, the chairman of the party became an opposition to Putin. Many of the members of the Just Russia party are against Putin. He was against a bill supported by United Russia that allowed corporations to train and arm private security forces. He complained that United Russia would not allow opponents and that Russia was becoming a one-party state. "Only an incorrigible optimist could consider that a pro-democracy move", he said in March 2009, when he criticized legislation to ban political parties with less than a 7% nationwide vote from parliament.There is a huge negative energy among the public that is ready to explode any moment. He aligned himself with the "swamp opposition". He warned of major street protests if United Russia committed electoral fraud in the upcoming election, after breaking ranks with his party's moderate criticism of Putin. According to the speech, the elections are a mix of abuse of administrative resources and work going ahead at full speed to ensure falsification. The speech was filmed and made into a popular video. Over the next year, he became a leader in public protests against Putin. In January 2012 a secret recording of a conversation between the two men was released, in which they appeared to discuss how to undermine other anti-Putin forces.A bill allowing large fines for anti-government protesters was opposed by the son of a lawmaker. The legislation was putting Russia on a path to a civil war by removing protest outlets, according to Gennady. The most striking act of parliamentary defiance was described by The Economist. There was a campaign of raids and investigations from a variety of bodies, from the fire department to the Moscow architectural committee. Permission for its guards to carry firearms was revoked. In July, he estimated that 40% of his business had been lost. In August of 2012 a special committee of the Duma was formed to investigate allegations that <mask> had violated parliamentary rules by making money from a construction firm while also holding his seat.The Prosecutor General and Investigative Committee presented evidence that he had broken anti-corruption laws, as well as the minutes of a meeting with his signature. On September 15, 2012 a vote of                                  . The vote was called a farce and a reprisal. It isn't a court. Sergei Mironov is the leader of the Just Russia party. "People expect fairness: Everyone is equal in the eyes of the law," stated United Russia deputy Andrei Isayev. We can't undermine the hope of our people.Analysts said the vote was part of a broader campaign against Putin's critics. According to The Economist, the question is not whether Mr <mask> ran afoul of Russian law, but rather why Russian law seems to matter so little to his peers who keep themselves in the Kremlin's better graces. He relocated to Varna in order to be safe. He formed the Social Democrats of Russia and merged it with the Alliance of Greens. He was forced from the party after he resigned from his co-chairmanship. The family has two sons. Dmitry was a State Duma deputy for the Just Russia party.The opposition to Putin was known as the Swamp. In the Russian legislative election, Dmitry wasn't reelected. In June 2021 he left Russia and said he was going to join his parents in Bulgaria. People from the Communist Party of the Soviet Union and the People's Party of the Russian Federation are listed on the official website.

texts: <mask> was a Chinese-American architect. <mask> was inspired at an early age by the garden villas at Suzhou, the traditional retreat of the scholar-gentry to which his family belonged. He moved to the United States in 1935 and attended the University of Pennsylvania's architecture school, but then transferred to the Massachusetts Institute of Technology. He spent his free time researching emerging architects and was unhappy with the focus on Beaux-Arts architecture at both schools. He joined the Harvard Graduate School of Design and became friends with the architects Walter Gropius and <mask>. In 1948, <mask> was recruited by William Zeckendorf, a New York City real estate magnate, for whom he worked for seven years before establishing an independent design firm. In 1966 it became I. M. Pei & Partners and in 1989 it became Pei Cobb Freed & Partners.<mask> retired from full-time practice in 1990. He worked as an architectural consultant for his sons' firm. The Mesa Laboratory at the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Colorado was <mask>'s first major recognition. He was selected as the chief architect for the John F. Kennedy Library. The East Building of the National Gallery of Art was designed by him. In 1975, he returned to China to design a hotel at Fragrant Hills, and fifteen years later he designed the Bank of China Tower in Hong Kong. <mask> was the focus of controversy when he designed a glass and steel pyramid for the Louvre in Paris.The chapel of the junior and high school, the Miho Museum in Japan, and the Museum of Aesthetics were all designed by him. <mask> won many awards in the field of architecture, including the first Praemium Imperiale for Architecture in 1989 and the Lifetime Achievement Award from the Cooper-Hewitt, National Design Museum. He won the Pritzker Prize in 1983, which is sometimes referred to as the Nobel Prize of architecture. I. M<mask>'s family moved from Anhui province to Suzhou when he was a child. After making their wealth in herbs, the family joined the ranks of scholar-gentry. The family of <mask>h <mask> moved to Hong Kong one year after he was born. The family had five children.<mask> was very close to his mother who was a flautist. He was invited to join her on meditation retreats. He had a less intimate relationship with his father. Their interactions were distant but respectful. <mask> said his father was not cultivated in the ways of the arts because of his ancestors' success. The younger <mask> was more interested in music and other cultural forms than his father was in banking. He said later that he had cultivated himself.<mask> attended St. Paul's College in Hong Kong as a child. <mask>'s father was promoted and relocated with his family to Shanghai when <mask> was 10. The secondary school of St. John's University was run by Anglican missionaries. Students were only allowed one half-day a month for leisure. <mask> enjoyed playing billiards and watching movies. He learned basic English skills by reading the Bible. The name "Paris of the East" was given by many international elements.The Park Hotel was built in 1934 and was influenced by the city's global architectural flavors. He was impressed by the many gardens of Suzhou, where he spent the summers with extended family and visited a nearby ancestral shrine. <mask>'s uncle, who was a Buddhist monk, built the Shizilin Garden in the 14th century. Its unusual rock formations, stone bridges, and waterfalls were in <mask>'s memory for a long time. He liked the garden's blend of natural and human-built structures. <mask>'s mother was diagnosed with cancer after the move to Shanghai. She was prescribed opium and assigned the task of preparing her pipe to <mask>.He was profoundly upset after she died. The children were sent to live with an extended family as their father became more distant. <mask> said that his father started living his own life after that. The woman who moved to New York later in her life was his father's wife. <mask> decided to study at a university as he neared the end of his secondary education. He decided to enroll at the University of Pennsylvania despite being accepted to many other schools. <mask> had two choices.He looked at the catalogs for various institutions of higher learning while he was studying in Shanghai. The architecture program at the University of Pennsylvania stood out to him. Hollywood was one of the major factors. <mask> was fascinated by the representations of college life in the films of Bing Crosby, which differed greatly from the academic atmosphere in China. He said in 2000 that college life in the U.S. was mostly fun and games. I wanted to be a part of it since I was too young to be serious. College life in America was exciting to me.We know that it's not real. It was very attractive to me at that time. I decided that was where I wanted to live. <mask> said that "Crosby's films in particular had a tremendous influence on my choosing the United States instead of England to pursue my education." <mask> traveled by train from San Francisco to Philadelphia in 1935. His expectations were vastly different when he arrived. The Beaux-Arts style of teaching was used by professors at the University of Pennsylvania.<mask> was intimidated by the high level of drafting skills shown by other students and was more interested in modern architecture. He went to the engineering program at MIT after abandoning architecture. <mask> was persuaded to return to his original major after the dean of the architecture school commented on his eye for design. <mask> was uninspired by the work of the architecture faculty at MIT. He found three books by Le Corbusier in the library. The new International Style is characterized by simplified form and use of glass and steel materials. <mask> said that the two days with Le Corbusier, or "Corbu" as we used to call him, were probably the most important days in his architectural education.<mask> was influenced by the work of Frank Lloyd Wright. He visited Wright's famous Taliesin building in Spring Green, Wisconsin, in 1938. He left without meeting Wright after waiting for two hours. <mask> excelled in his studies despite his dislike of the Beaux-Arts emphasis at MIT. He said he didn't regret his time at MIT. The science and technique of building is essential to architecture. <mask> received a degree.His thesis was titled "Standardized Propaganda Units for War Time and Peace Time China". <mask> met a Wellesley College student while visiting New York City in the late 1930s. They married in the spring of 1942. <mask> was introduced to members of the faculty at Harvard's Graduate School of Design when she was a student in the landscape architecture program. He joined the GSD because he was excited by the lively atmosphere. <mask> stopped his work at Harvard to join the National Defense Research Committee, which coordinated scientific research into U.S. weapons technology during World War II. One member of the committee told <mask> that if he knew how to build, he should also know how to destroy.He focused on the Pacific War because the fight against Germany was over. The U.S. realized that its bombs wouldn't work against Japanese cities built from wood and paper, so <mask> was assigned to work on bombs. <mask> was with the NDRC for two and a half years. After giving birth to T'ing Chung, Eileen withdrew from the landscape architecture program to care for him. <mask> was an assistant professor of design at Harvard in the fall of 1945. The GSD was becoming a hub of resistance to the Beaux-Arts orthodoxy. The cause of modern design was advanced by members of the Bauhaus, a European architectural movement.The leaders of the school left Germany after the Nazis condemned them. The Harvard GSD had two of these, Walter Gropius and <mask>. <mask> was attracted to their focus on modern architecture and worked closely with both men. A plan for an art museum in Shanghai was one of <mask>'s design projects. He wanted to create a sense of Chinese authenticity in the architecture without using traditional materials or styles. The design was based on a central courtyard garden and other natural settings nearby. Gropius said it was the best thing done in his master class.<mask> received an M.Arch. In 1946, I received a degree and taught at Harvard for two years. In the spring of 1948, <mask> was recruited by New York real estate magnate William Zeckendorf to join a staff of architects for his firm. <mask> found Zeckendorf's personality to be different from his own, and his boss was known for his loud speech. <mask> found the experience personally enriching and they became good friends. <mask> enjoyed learning about the social world of New York's city planners because Zeckendorf was well connected politically. The Housing Act of 1949 provided funding for his first project.Pei's design was based on a tower with rings. The apartments themselves were located toward the outer edge of the areas closest to the pillar. When they met, Zeckendorf showed the design to Le Corbusier. The cost of the design was too high and the building never moved beyond the model stage. In 1949, <mask> designed a two-story corporate building for Gulf Oil in Atlanta, Georgia. The front facade of the building will be retained as part of the apartment development. The journal Architectural Forum praised his use of marble.<mask>'s designs mirrored the work of <mask> van der Rohe in his own weekend-house in New York in 1952. <mask> asked Zeckendorf for assistants because he was so overwhelmed with projects. The Roosevelt Field Shopping Mall is one of the proposals they are going to work on. Zeckendorf's office was transformed into a circular space with a glass clerestory by the team. The control panel in the desk allowed their boss to control the lighting in his office. The project exceeded its budget and took one year to complete. <mask> and his team began work on several projects in Denver in 1952.The core building of the Mile High Center was compressed into less than 25% of the total site, and the rest is adorned with an exhibition hall and fountain-dotted plazas. The redesign of Denver's Courthouse Square combined office spaces, commercial venues, and hotels. <mask> was able to see the larger urban geography thanks to these projects. He said that he learned the process of development and about the city. He said that the lessons became essential for later projects. The L'Enfant Plaza in Washington, D.C. was designed by <mask> and his team. The plaza's North Building and South Building were designed by Araldo Cossutta.The Center Building was the United States Postal Service headquarters and the East Building was the L'Enfant Plaza Hotel. The team set out with a broad vision that was praised by both The Washington Post and Washington Star, but funding problems forced revisions and a reduction in scale. Pei's group established a new firm in 1955 called I. M. Pei & ASSOCIATES. The name was changed later to I. M. Pei & Partners. They were given the freedom to work with other companies, but continued to work with Zeckendorf. Detailed architectural models were used to distinguish the new firm. They took on the residential area on the East Side of Manhattan, where Pei set up two large long towers of apartments with recessed windows to provide shade and privacy, in a neat grid adorned with rows of trees.Pei inspected the bags of cement to make sure they were consistent in color. Society Hill is a project in central Philadelphia. <mask> designed the Society Hill Towers, a three-building residential block. The transition from classical to modern design was aided by the addition of traditional townhouses, which were central to <mask>'s vision. The cruciform tower known as the Royal Bank Plaza is one of Pei's most admired structures in the Commonwealth. The Canadian Encyclopedia states that the grand plaza and lower office buildings were designed by internationally famous US architect I. M<mask>. <mask>'s adherence to the mainstream of 20th-century modern design is demonstrated by the tower's smooth aluminum and glass surface and crisp unadorned geometric form.<mask> wanted to have his own name, even though the projects were enjoyable. He was asked to design a building for MIT's Earth science program. The grid design of Society Hill was continued by the Green Building. <mask> was embarrassed because the walkway at the ground floor was prone to sudden gusts of wind. He said that he didn't know about wind-tunnel effects. The Luce Memorial Chapel was designed at the same time. The soaring structure was commissioned by the same organisation that had run his middle school in Shanghai.<mask> was affected by the challenge of coordinating these projects. He oversaw the plans for the new building contracts. He didn't feel connected to the actual creative work. He said "design is something you have to put your hand to." I had to keep track of the whole enterprise because my people had the luxury of doing one job at a time. At a time when financial problems were afflicting Zeckendorf's firm, <mask>'s unhappiness reached its peak. <mask> was hurt by the break up of I. M. Pei and ASSOCIATES, but he was helped by the break up.Both men were sad to part ways after developing a close friendship. <mask> was able to return to hands-on design when he was asked to design the new Mesa Laboratory for the National Center for Atmospheric Research outside Boulder, Colorado. The project was different from <mask>'s earlier work because it was located in the foothills of the Rockies. He and his wife drove around the region and visited various buildings. He thought the United States Air Force Academy in Colorado Springs was detached from nature. <mask> needed the conceptualization stages to present a need and an opportunity to break from the Bauhaus tradition. He remembered the places he had seen with his mother when he was a child.Just as my mother had taught me, I tried to listen to the silence in the Colorado mountains. The investigation of the place became a religious experience for me. <mask> wanted the buildings to be in harmony with their natural surroundings and drew inspiration from the Mesa Verde cliff dwellings. He wanted the buildings to match the nearby mountains by using a rock-treatment process. The complex was set back on the mesa overlooking the city and he designed the road to be long, winding and indirect. Roberts disliked <mask>'s initial designs because they were just a bunch of towers. <mask> was frustrated that Roberts intended his comments to be scientific experimentation, rather than artistic critique.Roberts' vision was a series of clustered buildings, joined by lower structures and two underground levels. The walkways are arranged to increase the chances of casual encounters among colleagues. Problems with the laboratory's construction became apparent after it was built. The leaking of the roof and the shifting of clay soil caused cracks in the buildings which were expensive to repair. Both the architect and the project manager were happy with the final result. <mask> was a friend of Roberts and he referred to the NCAR complex as his "breakout building". The success of NCAR renewed attention to <mask>'s design skills.Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University, the Everson Museum of Art in Syracuse, New York, and the Sundrome terminal at John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City are some of the projects he was recruited to work on. After the assassination of President John F. Kennedy, his family and friends discussed how to build a memorial library. The final decision would be made by a committee formed to advise Kennedy's widow. Many famous architects were considered by the group. Kennedy chose <mask> to design the library based on two considerations. She appreciated the variety of ideas he had used. She said that he didn't seem to have a single way to solve the problem.He developed a way to make something beautiful after only thinking about it. Kennedy made her choice based on her personal connection with <mask>. She said that he was so full of promise, like Jack, that they were born in the same year. I decided it would be fun to jump with him. Problems from the beginning plagued the project. The first thing was scope. After taking office,

texts: President Kennedy began considering the structure of his library and wanted to include archives from his administration, a museum of personal items, and a political science institute.A memorial tribute to the slain president was added after the assassination. Significant delays were caused by the variety of necessary inclusions. <mask>'s first proposed design included a large glass pyramid that would fill the interior with sunlight to represent the optimism and hope that Kennedy's administration had symbolized for so many in the United States. As soon as the project was announced, resistance began in Cambridge, the first proposed site for the building. Many community members were worried that the library would become a tourist attraction and cause problems with traffic. It was feared that the design would clash with the feel of Harvard Square. <mask> tried to come up with a new design, but the library's opponents were against it.<mask> had sent all of his sons to Harvard, and although he rarely discussed his frustration, it was obvious to his wife. She said he was tired by the way he opened the door at the end of the day. His footsteps were moving slowly. It was hard for me to see so many people against the building. Columbia Point is near the University of Massachusetts Boston. The new site was located on an old landfill and just over a sewage pipe. <mask>'s team added more fill to the pipe and built an elaborate system to deal with the smell.A new design combines a large square glass enclosed atrium with a triangular tower and a circular walkway. On October 20, 1979 the John F. Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum was dedicated. The finished building was liked by critics but not the architect. The years of conflict and compromise had changed the nature of the design, and <mask> felt that the final result lacked its original passion. He said in 2000 that he wanted to give something special to the memory of Kennedy. It should have been a great project. <mask>'s work on the Kennedy project made him an architect of note.The Pei Plan was a failed urban redevelopment initiative in Oklahoma City. The plan called for the demolition of hundreds of old downtown structures in favor of renewed parking, office building, and retail developments. It was the main template for downtown development in Oklahoma City. The plan largely succeeded in re-developing office building and parking infrastructure but failed to attract retail and residential development. Public resentment developed as a result of the destruction of historic structures. In the 1980s and early 1990s, Oklahoma City's leadership avoided large-scale urban planning for downtown until the passage of the Metropolitan Area Projects (MAPS) initiative in 1993. Providence, Rhode Island, turned to Pei for urban renewal during this time.In the late 1960s, Providence hired <mask> to redesign Cathedral Square, a once-bustling civic center which had become neglected and empty, as part of an ambitious larger plan to redesign downtown. Pei's new plaza was modeled after the Greek Agora marketplace. The city ran out of money before <mask>'s vision could be realized. The neighborhood's character has been changed permanently by the construction of a low-income housing complex. Pei's new plaza was called a "conspicuous failure" by The Providence Evening Bulletin in 1974. The plaza was characterized as a "hidden gem" by the media. <mask> and his firm were hired by the city of Augusta, Georgia in 1974.From his plan, the Chamber of Commerce building was completed. <mask> designed a modern penthouse that was added to the roof of the Lamar Building, which was designed in 1916. The Augusta Civic Center was designed by <mask> and his company. Dallas City Hall Kennedy's assassination led to another commission for <mask>'s firm. The acting mayor of Dallas in 1964 began to change the community's image. Jonsson started a program to initiate a community renewal in Dallas, the city where the president had been killed. A new city hall was one of the goals.Cecil Howard Green, Jonsson's associate, recruited the architect for MIT's Earth Sciences building. <mask>'s approach to the new Dallas City Hall mirrored that of other projects, as he surveyed the surrounding area and worked to make the building fit. He was impressed by the civic pride of the people he met in Dallas. The skyscrapers of the downtown business district dominated the skyline and he wanted to create a building that could face the tall buildings and represent the importance of the public sector. He talked about creating a public-private dialogue with the high-rises. <mask> and <mask> collaborated on a design that centered on a building with a top that was much wider than the bottom and a facade that shaded the Texas sun. A plaza is held up by a series of columns.<mask> wanted to use the overhang to unify the building and plaza, which was influenced by Le Corbusier's High Court building in India. The project cost more than expected and took more than a decade to complete. Revenue was secured by a parking garage. The main space in the city hall is large and airy, thanks to the windows in the ceiling above the eighth floor. The city of Dallas received the building well, and a local television news crew found unanimous approval of the new city hall when it opened to the public in 1978. <mask> was worried about the arrangement of the elements, but he thought the project was a success. He said that it was stronger than he would have liked.The community liked the city hall so much that they invited him back, despite his lack of experience. He went on to design five more buildings in the Dallas area. Henry Cobb had taken the helm for a commission in Boston while Pei and Musho were coordinating the Dallas project. I. M. Pei & Partners was hired to design a building that could overshadow the other building. After the firm's first plan was discarded due to a need for more office space, a new plan was developed around a parallelogram slanted away from the Trinity Church. The building was covered in large reflective glass panels to make it less noticeable. The tallest building in New England at the time was the Hancock Tower.The tower had serious issues of execution immediately. A windstorm caused many glass panels to break. Some detached and fell to the ground, causing concern among Boston residents. The tower was reglazed with smaller panels. The cost of the project was increased by this. The plans submitted by the glass manufacturers were not good and workmanlike. LOF accused Pei's firm of poor use of their materials in their countersuit.The companies settled out of court. The project was an albatross for <mask>'s firm. <mask> didn't discuss it for a long time. The firm's architects began looking overseas for opportunities after the pace of new commissions slowed. <mask> took jobs in Singapore, Iran, and Kuwait after working in Australia. <mask> later reflected on the experience and said that it was difficult for everyone involved. He said that going through the trial made them stronger.We didn't give up on each other and it helped cement us as partners. The National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C. needed a new building in the 1960's. A member of the building committee and a primary benefactor of the gallery, <mask> was going to work with his assistant J. Carter Brown to find an architect. The new structure would be located to the east of the original building and tasked with two functions: offer a large space for public appreciation of various popular collections; and house office space as well as archives for scholarship and research. They compared the scope of the new facility to the Library of Alexandria. <mask> was offered the commission after inspecting his work at the Des Moines Art Center in Iowa and the Johnson Museum at Cornell University. <mask> took to the project with gusto, and was going to work with two young architects he had recently recruited to the firm.At the intersection of Constitution and Pennsylvania Avenues, there is an unusual shape of the building site. <mask> was inspired by a diagram he wrote on a scrap of paper. The public gallery would be larger than the offices and archives in the smaller building. The architect had a singular vision for the triangular shape. He suggested to his boss that a slightly different approach would make construction easier. <mask> smiled and said "No compromises". Challenges to the architecture were presented by the growing popularity of art museums.Large crowds of people are expected to visit the new building, so they planned accordingly. <mask> designed a large lobby with skylights. Visitors can return to individual galleries after viewing an exhibit in the main room. Alexander Calder's sculpture was added to the lobby. <mask> wanted the lobby to be like the central room of the Guggenheim Museum in New York City. He said that the modern museum needs to pay more attention to its educational responsibility. The materials for the building's exterior were carefully selected.In order to match the look and texture of the original gallery's marble walls, the quarry in Tennessee was re-opened. <mask> was the quarry supervisor who oversaw the original 1941 gallery project. The marble was cut into three-inch-thick blocks and arranged over the concrete foundation with darker blocks at the bottom and lighter blocks on top. On May 30, 1978, the East Building was honored with a black-tie party attended by celebrities, politicians, benefactors, and artists. The popular opinion was enthusiastic when the building opened. The new museum was visited by large crowds. The New York Times wrote that Pei's building was "a palatial statement of the creative accommodation of contemporary art and architecture".Over the years, the small building has become stained and worn by visitors and has been a particular note of praise for the public. The reliance on triangles throughout the building was criticized by some critics. The large main lobby tried to lure casual visitors. Aura of ancient Roman patronage was described by critic Richard Hennessy in his review for Artforum. One of the earliest and most vocal critics appreciated the new gallery when he saw it in person. Allan Greenberg wrote a letter to J. Carter Brown admitting that he was wrong about the design. The building is beautiful.After Richard Nixon's visit to China in 1972, there was a wave of exchanges between the two countries. <mask> was part of a delegation from the American Institute of Architects in 1974. He returned to China for the first time since 1935. He was welcomed with positive comments and a series of lectures followed. <mask> urged his audience in one lecture to search China's native traditions for inspiration, as he noted in one lecture that since the 1950s Chinese architects had been content to imitate Western styles. <mask> was asked to start a project for his country. <mask> fell in love with a valley that used to be an imperial garden and hunting preserve.<mask> was invited to tear down the old hotel and build a new one. He carefully considered the context and purpose of the project. He thought the styles were inappropriate for the setting. He said it was necessary to find a third way. <mask> created a design based on some simple but nuanced techniques he admired in traditional Chinese buildings after visiting his ancestral home in Suzhou. There were gardens, integration with nature, and consideration of the relationship between enclosure and opening. The large central space in <mask>'s East Building of the National Gallery was covered by glass panels.Guests were invited to view the scenery beyond the walls. Younger Chinese who had hoped the building would exhibit some Cubist flavor for which <mask> had become known were disappointed, but the new hotel found more favour with government officials and architects. The hotel was designed to fit in with the natural environment. Special care was taken to cut down the trees that were of special concern. The original hotel is one of only five in the country that has a water maze. <mask> insisted on transporting rocks from a location in southwest China to suit the natural aesthetic of the garden behind the hotel. An associate of <mask>'s said he had never seen the architect so involved in a project.The nation's lack of technology led to a series of mistakes during construction. In the US, 200 or so workers might have been used for a similar building, but the Fragrant Hill project employed over 3000 workers. The construction company didn't have the sophisticated machines used in other parts of the world. <mask> had an emotional moment during a meeting with Chinese officials. He explained that his actions includedhouting and pounding the table. The design staff noticed a change in the way the crew worked after the meeting. <mask> found the hotel still needed work as the opening neared.He ordered his children to make beds and vacuum floors. The <mask> family was affected by the project's difficulties. The Fragrant Hill Hotel opened in 1982. The dilapidated condition of the hotel was confirmed by a member of <mask>'s staff who returned several years later. The country's general unfamiliarity with buildings was attributed by him and <mask>. At the time, the Chinese architectural community was interested in the work of American postmodernists such as <mask>. James Freed was <mask>'s lead designer on the Jacob K. Javits Convention Center in New York City.Freed wanted to create a vibrant community institution in what was then a run-down neighborhood on Manhattan's west side. Budget problems and construction mistakes plagued the convention center from the beginning. City regulations forbid a general contractor from having final authority over a project, so architects and program manager Richard Kahan had to coordinate a wide array of workers. 12,000 forged steel globes were rejected because they had cracks and other defects. The problems led to comparisons with the Hancock Tower. One New York City official blamed the building's architectural flourishes for delays and financial crises. On April 3, 1986, the Javits Center opened to a generally positive reception.Neither Freed nor <mask> were recognized for their part in the project during the inauguration ceremonies. Franois <mask> was elected President of France in 1981 and laid out an ambitious plan for a variety of construction projects. The Louvre was renovated. A civil servant was appointed to look after it. <mask> was asked to join the team after visiting museums in Europe and the United States. Only one museum employee knew why the architect was in Paris to look at the feasibility of the project. <mask> agreed that a new construction project was necessary for the future of the museum.He was the first foreign architect to work on the Louvre. The renovation of the Cour Napoléon in the middle of the buildings was part of the new design. The National Gallery East Building has a lobby that links the three major wings around the central space. There would be more than one floor for research, storage, and maintenance. He designed a glass and steel pyramid at the center of the courtyard to serve as an entrance and anteroom skylight. To reflect sunlight into the complex, it was mirrored by an inverted pyramid. The fastidious geometry of the French landscape architect André Le Ntre is what inspired these designs.<mask> thought that the pyramid shape was most compatible with the architecture of the Louvre, and that it was best suited for stable transparency. The Louvre administrator was displeased with the scope of the renovation. He quit his job because the project was unfeasible and posedarchitectural risks. The French public reacted harshly to the design because of the pyramid. One critic called it a "gigantic, ruinous device", while another called it "despotism". <mask>'s design was opposed by 90 percent of Parisians. He said he received angry glances in the streets of Paris.Some condemnations were nationalist. One opponent wrote "I am surprised that one would go looking for a Chinese architect in America to deal with the historic heart of the capital of France." <mask> and his team won the support of several cultural icons, including the conductor Pierre Boulez and the widow of a former French

texts: President, after whom the similarly controversial Centre Georges Pompidou was named. <mask> placed a full-sized cable model of the pyramid in the courtyard in an attempt to soothe public ire. 60,000 people visited the site during the four days of the exhibition. Critics were less opposed after seeing the scale of the pyramid. A method of glass production that resulted in clear panes was demanded by <mask>.Difficulties during the building stages were caused by the fact that the pyramid was constructed at the same time as the subterranean levels below. Construction teams found an abandoned set of rooms containing 25,000 historical items and incorporated them into the rest of the structure to create a new exhibition zone. On October 14, 1988, the new Cour Napolon opened to the public, and the Pyramid entrance opened the following March. A poll found a 56 percent approval rating for the pyramid, with 23 percent still opposed. Le Figaro criticized Pei's design but later celebrated the tenth anniversary of its magazine supplement at the pyramid. Prince Charles of Britain was interested in the new site and declared it to be very exciting. The pyramid has become cute according to a writer in Le Quotidien de Paris.Pei was 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 800-273-3217 He said after the Louvre that no project would be too difficult. The final scene of the film adaptation of The Da Vinci Code included an appearance by the pyramid. Pei's most famous structure is the Louvre Pyramid. Paul Goldberger declared 1989 "the year of Pei" in The New York Times after the opening of the Louvre Pyramid. Pei's firm changed its name to Pei Cobb Freed & Partners in order to reflect the increasing stature and prominence of his associates. Pei continued working long hours to see his designs come to light, even though he had begun thinking about retirement at the age of 72.<mask> went back to Dallas, Texas, to design the symphony center. The success of city's performing artists, particularly the Dallas Symphony Orchestra, led to interest by city leaders in creating a modern center for musical arts that could rival the best halls in Europe. <mask> thought that his work on the Dallas City Hall had left a negative impression when the organizing committee contacted 45 architects. One of his colleagues insisted that he meet with the committee. Although it would be his first concert hall, the committee voted unanimously to offer him the commission. One member said that they were convinced that the world's greatest architect would put his best foot forward. Specific challenges were presented by the project.The main purpose of the hall was to present live music, so it needed a design focused on acoustics and public access. A professional sound technician was hired to design the interior. The Amsterdam Concertgebouw is one of the top European symphony halls and uses a shoebox auditorium. The Basilica of the Fourteen Holy Helpers was one of the places <mask> drew inspiration from. The Paris Opéra was designed by Charles Garnier. <mask>'s design placed the rigid shoebox at an angle to the surrounding street grid, connected at the north end to a long rectangular office building, and cut through the middle with an assortment of circles and cones. The design tried to reproduce the acoustic and visual functions of traditional elements.The project was risky because of its ambitious goals and the impossibility of fixing acoustic flaws after the hall's completion. <mask> didn't know how everything would come together. He said that only 60 percent of the space in the building was usable. Everyone else will be surprised by the rest. Some sponsors considered withdrawing their support due to the rising costs of the project. The donation was made on the condition that it be named in honor of <mask><mask>, the long-time patron of the arts in Dallas. The building received a lot of praise for its acoustics.After attending a week of performances in the hall, a music critic for The New York Times wrote an enthusiastic account of the experience. One of <mask>'s associates told him during a party before the opening that the symphony hall was a very mature building; he smiled and replied, "Ah, but did I have to wait this long?" <mask> received a new offer from the Chinese government in 1982. Authorities in China sought <mask>'s help on a new tower for the local branch of the Bank of China because they wanted to transfer sovereignty of Hong Kong from the British in 1997. The Chinese government wanted a tower to represent modernity and economic strength as it prepared for a new wave of engagement with the outside world. The government visited the 89-year-old man in New York to gain approval for his son's involvement, given the elder <mask>'s history with the bank before the Communist takeover. <mask> spoke with his father about the proposal.The architect accepted the commission despite being pained by his experience with Fragrant Hills. A tangle of highways lined the proposed site in Hong Kong's Central District. The area was home to a Japanese military police headquarters during World War II and was notorious for prisoner torture. The small parcel of land made a tall tower necessary, and <mask> usually shied away from such projects; in Hong Kong, the skyscrapers lacked any real architectural character. <mask> took a weekend vacation to the family home in New York because he lacked inspiration and didn't know how to approach the building. He was experimenting with a bundle of sticks. <mask> wanted his design for the Bank of China Tower to reflect the wishes of the Chinese people.The design that he developed for the skyscraper was unique in appearance, but also sound good enough to pass the city's wind-resistance standards. The building is composed of four triangular shafts rising up from a square base, supported by a visible truss structure that distributes stress to the four corners of the base. <mask> used the reflective glass that had become a trademark for him to organize the facade around diagonal bracing in a union of structure and form that reiterates the triangle motifs established in the plan. The roofs were designed to match the rising aesthetic of the building. <mask> and government officials responded to the criticism of the design with token adjustments. <mask> was shocked to see the massacre of civilians at the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989. He wrote an opinion piece for The New York Times titled "China Won't Ever Be the Same", in which he said that the killings "tore the heart out of a generation that carries the hope for the future of the country".He wrote that China was besmirched by the massacre. <mask> transitioned into a role of decreased involvement with his firm in the 1990s. <mask> wanted to dedicate himself to smaller projects to allow for more creativity, as the staff had begun to shrink. He was going to work on the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland, Ohio before he made this change. His association with what many considered a tribute to low culture surprised some critics. The sponsors of the hall wanted the building to have an aura of respectability from the beginning. <mask> accepted the commission because of the unique challenge it presented.<mask> coated the exterior of the main building in white metal and placed a large cylinder on a narrow perch to serve as a performance space, similar to the Louvre pyramid. <mask> said the wraparounds and walls were designed to provide a sense of tumultuous youthful energy, rebelling, flailing about. The building received moderate praise when it opened in 1995. <mask> was among those who were disappointed with the results of the project. A fuzzy understanding among project leaders for precisely what was needed was created by the museum's early beginnings in New York. <mask> was not happy with the new tourist attraction in Cleveland. The Musée d'art moderne Grand-Duc Jean, commonly known as the Mudam, was designed by <mask> at the same time.<mask> wanted to remove part of the original foundation from the Fort Thngen walls. The project was almost abandoned because of public resistance to the historical loss. To preserve the foundation, the size of the building was halved and it was set back from the original wall segments. <mask> was involved in the building process even though he was disappointed with the alterations. <mask> was hired in 1995 to design an extension to the German Historical Museum in Berlin. <mask> designed the East Building of the U.S. National Gallery with a classical main structure in mind. The glass cylinder addition was topped with a glass roof to let in more sunlight.The German government's approach to the project clashed with <mask>'s passion for Aesthetics. He said that they thought he was trouble. <mask> worked on two projects for a new Japanese religious movement. The spiritual leader of the movement, Kaishu Koyama, impressed the architect with her willingness to give him artistic freedom. The bell tower was designed to look like the bachi used when playing traditional instruments. <mask> explored the movement's beliefs in order to represent something meaningful in the tower. He said it was a search for the sort of expression that was not technical.<mask> agreed to work with the group again after the experience was rewarding. The Miho Museum displayed Koyama's collection of tea ceremony artifacts. During their conversations, <mask> convinced Koyama to expand her collection. More than 300 items showcasing the history of the Silk Road were acquired by her. The approach to the museum was a major challenge. The approach to the NCAR building in Colorado was similar to the winding road proposed by the Japanese team. Instead, <mask> ordered a hole cut through a nearby mountain, connected to a major road via a bridge suspended from ninety-six steel cables and supported by a post set into the mountain.80% of the building of the museum was built underground. <mask> borrowed from the tradition of Japanese temples when designing the exterior. The space frame was covered with French limestone and had a glass roof. There is a bench carved from a 350-year-old keyaki tree in the entrance lobby. Estimates at the time of completion put the cost of the project at US$350 million, but because of Koyama's wealth, money was rarely considered an obstacle. <mask> designed a number of buildings during the first decade of the 2000s. The Museum of Islamic Art was designed by him at the request of the Al-Thani Family.<mask> convinced the project coordinators to build a new island instead of the originally planned corniche road. He spent six months surveying mosques in Spain, Syria, and Tunisia. He was impressed with the simplicity of the mosque. <mask> wanted to combine new design elements with the classical aesthetic most appropriate for the location of the building. Small arched windows at regular intervals into the limestone exterior are created by the sand-colored rectangular boxes rotating evenly. The galleries are arranged around a large building. The official website describes the project as "true splendour unveiled in the sunlight" and "the shades of colour and the interplay of shadows paying tribute to the essence of Islamic architecture".Pei Partnership Architects collaborated with I. M. Pei to design the Macao Science Center. The project to build a science center started in 2006 and was conceived in 2001. The Chinese President opened the center in 2009. The main part of the building is similar to the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum in New York City. There are interactive exhibits aimed at science education in the galleries. The building is located by the sea and is now a landmark in Macau. <mask> died at the age of 102 years of age.<mask>'s style was described as thoroughly modern. Circles, squares, and triangles are common elements of his work in both plan and elevation. <mask> has been described as combining a classical sense of form with a contemporary mastery of method. <mask> was called the "most distinguished member of his Late-Modernist generation still in practice" in 2000. <mask> rejected simple dichotomies of architectural trends at the same time. The talk about post-modernism is unimportant according to him. It is a side issue.The style in which the building is going to be designed and built is not important. The most important thing is the community. How does it affect your life? The world of architecture celebrates <mask>'s work. John Portman once told his colleague, "Just once, I'd like to do something like the East Building." <mask> replied to the successful architect, "Just once, I'd like to make the kind of money you do." His concepts were too individualized and dependent on context to have given rise to a particular school of design.<mask> referred to his own approach when explaining the lack of a Pei School. "My analytical approach requires a full understanding of the three essential elements to arrive at an ideal balance among them," he said. The Arnold Brunner Award from the National Institute of Arts and Letters was one of the awards <mask> won. He was awarded the prize in 1983 for his work. The jury said that <mask> <mask> has given this century some of its most beautiful interior spaces and exterior forms. <mask> used to create a scholarship for Chinese students to study architecture in the U.S. on the condition that they return to China to work. He received the medal of liberty in 1986.The board chair of the National Building Museum praised his impact on construction innovation when he was awarded the 2003 Henry C. Turner Prize. <mask> was awarded the Presidential Medal of Freedom in December of 1992. <mask> was the first foreign member of the Chinese Academy of Engineering. Eileen Loo, <mask>'s wife of over 70 years, died in June. They had three sons, T'ing Chung and Chien Chung. Didi and Li Chung were both born in 1946. A daughter, Liane, was born in 1949.1960). T'ing Chung was a graduate of MIT and Harvard. Chieng Chung and Li Chung are both alumni of Harvard College and the Harvard Graduate School of Design.

texts: Georgia State University has a professor of piano performance named <mask>. He was a professor at the University of Wisconsin–Stevens Point. He received Bachelor's, Master's, and Doctor of Musical Arts degrees from the Yerevan State Musical Conservatory. He graduated from the Manhattan School of Music with a master's degree in piano performance. In several national and international competitions, <mask> has won top prizes. The International Piano Competition, Frinna Awerbuch International Competition, and Artists International Competition are all in New York. He made his New York recital debut in Carnegie Hall.He performs in North America, Europe, Russia and Asia. His performances have taken him to a number of prestigious venues, including Carnegie and Merkin Hall, the Kennedy Center, Orchestra Hall, Atlanta Symphony Hall, and Maly Zal. On a yearly basis, <mask> tours Japan for adjudication, master classes, and concerts. He is a Guest Artist/Teacher of The Takatsuki Music Teacher's Association of Osaka and Yamaha and is represented in Japan by Tokyo IMC. Armenian-born pianist <mask> has a beautiful sound that reminds you of perfectly matched pearls. In the first half, the pianist displayed this quality with great conviction. The beautiful melody from the G minor Prelude Op.23 No.5 floated in the air, pouring out deeply personal inconsolable feelings.The brilliance of the arpeggios in the higher register contrasted with the depth of the melody in the bass of the Prelude. The rampant image of Mephisto roaming at will appeared from <mask>'s tenacious and unyielding chords and octaves, and his capricious, and at times, leisurely changes of the mood in Liszt's Mephisto Waltz. One could hear the laughter. The audience was completely enamored by the bell-like tone in the music by Komitas and Baghdassarian, which were performed with magnificent imagination and splendid colorful changes of tone. Gershwin Songs were arranged by Earl Wild. The "violence" and "coolheadedness" were brought out in <mask>'s rendition of Prokofiev's Seventh Sonata. I think that <mask> is an heir to the mainstream of the Russian Pianism.There was a standing ovation and cries of "Bravo" and "Encore" from the audience when pianist <mask> <mask> presented the work. The hall was devoured by <mask>'s wonderful touch and sound, he was creating wonderful art, and treated the piano with his love for the music. I attended a piano recital in Clintonville on April 16. I was completely enamored by Mr. <mask>'s performance. Mr. <mask> let the piano speak with the rest of his pieces. The Mephisto Waltz # 1 closed the program. What a jaw-dropper, its technical difficulties were negotiated with aplomb.The piece is mostly empty bombast, but it is fun and a great example of a pianist's skills. There is a surfeit of them, strength and stamina, which is what <mask> <mask> has. The second half of the program began with an account of the famous "Butterfly", "Octave" and "Ocean" by <mask>. It sang with a rich juicy tone and had a solid core. The music came alive, it was throbbing with excitement. These are some of <mask>'s best qualities. Phoenix Hall is in Osaka, Japan.In 2012 <mask> received international praise for his album "Dance, Drama, Decadence" (IMC Music, Japan). The album was chosen as the classical album of the month by Mainichi Shinbun, one of Japan's largest newspapers. "Dance, Drama, Decadence" was selected as the "best new release of the month" by Tokyo FM, a prominent radio channel. The CD was recommended and archived by Ongaku no Tomo of Japan as a study reference. A glowing review of the album appeared in American Record Guide, as well as being featured in Fanfare Magazine. Dance, Drama, Decadence was aired on WPR (Madison, WI) and KHPR (Honolulu, HI), as well as being interviewed by Wisconsin Public Radio's Norman Gilliland. There are recordings of colorful folkloristic pieces by Komitas and Baghdassarian on the album.Koch International Classics has a book called "Bach-Busoni Edition, Vol.I". The first critically acclaimed recording of solo works by S. Rachmaninoff and A. Babajanian was released in March 2015, and is distributed by Naxos.

texts: <mask> was an American psychic who claimed to channel from his higher self while asleep. His words were recorded by his friends, and later by his secretary. Cayce answered questions about healing, reincarnation, dreams, the afterlife, past lives, nutrition, Atlantis and future events. Cayce's readings were often criticized by his religious colleagues as demonic. Cayce believed that his mind was exploring the dream realm where he believed all minds were connected. The Association for Research and Enlightenment was founded by Cayce to record and facilitate the study of his channel. He was given the nickname The Sleeping Prophet.The author Michael York believes that he is the true founder of the New Age movement. In Kentucky, near Beverly, Cayce was born on March 18, 1877. His parents were farmers and had six children. Cayce saw the ghost of his grandfather when he was a child. He was confident that it was a ghost because he looked hard enough. At the age of 10, Cayce became engrossed in the Bible. Cayce did a dozen readings over the next two years.Cayce claimed that he had an encounter with a woman with wings who told him that his prayers had been answered. He was asked what he wanted the most. Cayce told his biographer that he wanted to help sick children, even though he was frightened. He wanted to be a missionary. Cayce said that the next night, after a complaint from the school teacher, his father brutally tested him on spelling and became so enraged that he knocked Cayce out of his chair. The woman with wings told Cayce that they could help him if he went to sleep. He put his head on his book and fell asleep.Cayce said that when his father woke him up, he knew all of the answers. He could repeat things in the book. He said his father thought he had been fooling him before he knocked him out of his chair. Cayce said he slept atop his school books. Cayce claimed he was the best student in his class. Cayce told the teacher that he saw pictures in the books. His father spread the accomplishment around.Cayce said that during a school ball game, he was struck in his coccyx and began to behave strangely. He found a cure in his sleep after going to sleep. The cure was prepared by his family according to his instructions. Cayce would not be able to diagnose in his sleep for a long time. The Cayce family moved to Kentucky in December 1893 and lived on the southeast corner of Seventh and Young Streets. According to the Association for Research and Enlightenment, Cayce left the family farm to pursue various forms of employment after he noticed his clairvoyant abilities. Cayce's education stopped in the ninth grade because his family couldn't afford it.A ninth-grade education is more than enough for working-class children. Cayce's younger years would be characterized by a search for employment. On March 14, 1897, Cayce got engaged. Cayce was a member of the Disciples of Christ. He read the entire Bible once a year, taught Sunday school, and recruited missionaries. He said he could hear voices of departed relatives and see auras around people. He was unsure if these prophetic abilities were delivered from the highest source.In 1900, Cayce formed a business partnership with his father to sell Woodmen of the World Insurance, but in March he lost his voice due to laryngitis. Unable to work, he lived at home with his parents. The trade of photography would allow him to have less strain on his voice. He began his career as a photographer at the studio of W. R. Bowles. In 1901, a traveling stage hypnotist and entertainer named Hart, who referred to himself as "The Laugh Man", was performing at theHopkinsville Opera House. Hart offered to cure Cayce's throat condition. The experiment was conducted in the office of Manning Brown, the local throat specialist, after Cayce accepted his offer.<mask>'s voice came back while he was in a hypnotized state. Hart tried a posthypnotic suggestion that the voice would continue to function, but it didn't work. Hart admitted that he had failed because Cayce wouldn't go into the third stage of hypnotism to take a suggestion. After returning to New York, John Duncan Quackenboss suggested that Cayce should take over his own case while in the second stage of hypnotism. Cayce was offered the help of a hypnotist. "We have the body" was the first thing Cayce would say when he wanted to indicate that the connection was made to someone. Cayce declared the treatment over after 20 minutes.His voice was said to have remained normal. When the cure was permanent, the relapses were said to have been corrected by Layne in the same way. <mask> was asked to describe Layne's ailments and suggest cures, and the results were both accurate and effective. The ability was seen as clairvoyance by Layne. Cayce could offer his healing to the public. Cayce was hesitant as he had no idea what he was talking about while he was asleep. He said he didn't want to know anything about the patient as it wasn't relevant.He agreed on the condition that readings would be free. He began to offer free treatments to the people of the town. Cayce's method was described as a self-imposed hypnotic trance which induces clairvoyance. Many postal inquiries were inspired by reports of Cayce's work. Cayce said he could work just as well with a letter from the individual as with the person in the room. Cayce said he could diagnose the physical and mental conditions of what he termed "the entity", and then provide a remedy. One dead patient was all Cayce needed to become a murderer.His fiancée agreed with him. Few people knew what he was doing. At the time, there was a belief that subjects of hypnotism would eventually go insane or that their health would suffer. People from around the world sought Cayce's advice through correspondence. He boarded with some young professionals, two of whom were doctors, in the town of Bowling Green after he got a bookshop job. After he lost his voice, Layne came to help cure him. Cayce kept the meetings secret and refused money for his readings.He invented a card game called Pit or Board of Trade, which was popular, but when he sent the idea to a game company they copyrighted it and he got no returns. He wouldn't give readings for money. On June 17, 1903, <mask> and Gertrude Evans married, and she moved to Bowling Green with him. They had three children. Cayce was agonized over the morality of the readings. The state medical authorities forced Layne to close his practice after he revealed the activity to the professionals at the boarding house. He left to get qualifications in Franklin.The publicity was aided by the diplomacy of the young doctors and Cayce and Gertrude accepted it as best they could. While the doctors formed a committee with some colleagues to investigate the phenomenon, Cayce and a relative opened a photographic studio in Bowling Green. The readings were confirmed in all the experiments. Cayce didn't want to go into business. Cayce declared that he would only do readings for those who needed help and believed in the readings, after 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 800-313-5780 His two photographic studios were burned down in 1906. His first son was born on March 16, 1907.He was debt free by 1909 and ready to start again. His confidence was helped by diagnostic successes in his family. He refused to go into business with Ketchum, who was introduced by his father. He got a job at the firm. In October 1910, Ketchum got written up in the press for spreading information. Cayce explained to the reporter that he had the ability to easily go into the intuitive sleep when he wanted to, and this was different from how he went to sleep normally. The mechanism of the readings via the sleep method was told to them when they asked.Cayce should join a business company. Cayce accepted the offer under certain conditions, including that he did not take money for the readings. He was prophesying. Cayce couldn't understand what he was doing because the back readings contained so many technical terms. Most of the patients were not in that locality, so he preferred to put the readings on a more scientific basis. Doctors from all specialties were needed. The <mask>'s lost their second child because of this reticence, and they did not give therapeutic priority to the readings.They used the readings after the doctor gave up on him. The treatment cured her. In 1912, Cayce discovered that Ketchum had used them to gamble for finance, and that he had not been honest about them. He argued that the medical profession was not behind them. <mask> left the company and went back to the firm in Alabama. <mask>'s work grew in volume as his fame grew. He wanted voluntary donations to support himself and his family so that he could practice full-time.Pit, a card game based on commodities trading at the Chicago Board of Trade, was invented to help raise money. He worked with a hypnotist for the rest of his life. His wife and son took over the role. Gladys Davis recorded his readings. Several eager commercially minded men who wanted to seek a fortune by using his clairvoyant abilities were attracted by the growing fame of Cayce. Even though Cayce was reluctant to help them, he was persuaded to give his readings, which left him dissatisfied with himself and unsuccessful. Despite his poor finances, Cayce refused the merchant's offer of a hundred dollars a day for his cotton readings.Some wanted to know where to find treasures while others 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 800-381-0266 Cayce was persuaded to give readings by Arthur Lammers, a wealthy printer and student of metaphysics. Lammers told Cayce that he spoke of Lammers' past lives and reincarnation, something Lammers believed in. Christianity does not accept reincarnation as an accepted part of doctrine. Cayce questioned his stenographer about what he said, but remained unconvinced. Cayce challenged Lammers' charge that he had validation of astrology and reincarnation. I wasn't able to say all that in one reading.Lammers: No. You confirmed it. I have been studying metaphysics for a long time, and I was able to check out what is right and wrong with a lot of the stuff I've been reading. The basic system which runs through all religions is backed up by you. The ability to enter again into the presence of the Creator and become a full part of that creation was recorded by Cayce's stenographer. This is the third appearance on this plane, and the first as a monk. In this mode of living, we can see a glimpse of the life of the entity.The spirit and soul of the body always remain the same. Cayce was unconvinced that he had been referring to the doctrine of reincarnation, and the best Lammers could offer was that the reading "opens up the door" and to share his beliefs and knowledge with him. Lammers came to him with information that he wanted to share with Cayce in order to convince him that the reading had confirmed his beliefs. Twelve years before Cayce mentioned reincarnation. Cayce referred to the soul being transmigrated in 4841–1. Because Cayce's readings were not systematically recorded until 1923, it is possible that he may have mentioned reincarnation and astrology in other earlier readings. Lammers asked Cayce to come to Dayton to pursue metaphysics.Cayce went to Dayton.

Lammers said that the fifth chapter of Matthew was the constitution of Christianity and the Sermon on the Mount was its Declaration of Independence. Cayce's mind was at home with the language of metaphysics as much as it was with the language of medicine. Lammers wanted to ask the purpose of readings of Cayce's clairvoyance, and to raise money for an organization that supports Cayce's healing methods. Cayce asked his family to join him in Dayton as soon as possible after he accepted the work.Lammers was in financial difficulties by the time the Cayces arrived. Cayce was viewed as useless by many people. Cayce used his knowledge of the Bible to convince his family. Cayce directed his activities to

texts: give readings about health. A lot of the remedies were used on the beach, including diet, massage, and more relaxation in the sand. Cayce felt that it was time to legitimize the operations with the aid of licensed medical practitioners because his remedies were coming under scrutiny by the American Medical Association. The voice told Cayce to move to Virginia Beach, Virginia across the street from the beach.He was told that the sand's crystals would promote rapid healing. Cayce's mature period, in which he created the several institutions that survived him, can be considered to have started in 1925. He was a psychic with a small group of employees and volunteers. The readings began to involve themes from the past. Money was hard to come by, but help came from people who were interested. Most of the people didn't like the idea of an association and a hospital, so the readings insisted on Virginia Beach. The readings were being conducted by <mask>.Morton Blumenthal, a young man who worked in the stock exchange in New York with his trader brother, became very interested in the readings, shared Cayce's outlook, and offered to finance the vision in the right spirit. He bought them a house. The Association of National Investigations was incorporated in Virginia in 1927. This would allow for a scientific study of the readings. Morton was president and his brother was a vice president. Gladys was the assistant secretary. To protect against legal prosecution, the rules required any person requesting a reading to become a member of the Association and agree they were participating in an experiment in psychic research.The head of the psychology department at Washington and Lee University became convinced of the readings and joined the Association. The hospital complex was dedicated on October 11, 1928. It had a library, a lecture hall, and offices for research workers. There was a large living room, 12-car garage, servants quarters, and a tennis court. It was the only lawn between the Cavalier and Cape Henry. The patient was admitted the next day. Cayce's goal was to make sure that the remedies were checked and rechecked.Cayce wanted to create a compendium that could be used by the medical profession because there were consistent remedies for many of the illnesses. A chemist, Sunker A. Bisley, DPhil (Oxon), who also used "clairvoyant knowledge" to produce medicines, collaborated with Cayce to produce Atomidine, an absorbable form of iodine. All treatments, including all schools and types of treatment, were given in order to establish the proper equilibrium of the assimi. Salt packs, poultices, hot compress, color healing, magnetism, vibrator treatment, massage, osteopathic manipulation, dental therapy, colonics, enemas, antiseptics, inhalants, Homeopathics, essential oils, mud baths were prescribed. The substances used included oils, salts, herbs, iodine, witch hazel, magnesia,bismuth, alcohol, castoria, lactated pepsin, turpentine, charcoal, animated ash, soda, cream of Tartar, aconite, laudanum, and gold solution These were prescribed to overcome the conditions that prevented proper digestion from the prescribed diet. The aim of the readings was to remove the cause of the ailment.If the patient's recovery was problematic, there would be readings. There was a waiting list. Blumenthal and Brown went ahead with plans for a university as a supplement to the hospital and a parallel service for the mind and spirit. Before psychic studies would begin, it was to dwarf the hospital and other universities in respectability. On September 22, 1930, it was to open. Blumenthal owned the hospital after calling a meeting of the Association. He stopped supporting the university after the first semester and closed the association on February 26, 1931.Cayce took the readings home from the hospital. Cayce was interested in spiritual teachings during the Depression. In 1931, Cayce's friends and family asked how they could become psychics. The creation of study groups was the result of an eleven-year discourse. Cayce told the group that the purpose of life is not to become a psychic, but to become a more loving person. Group No. They were told that they could bring light to a waiting world and that these lessons would be studied a hundred years into the future.The readings are now about dreams, coincidence, akashic records, astrology, past-life relationships, soul mates and other subjects. Hundreds of books have been published about the readings that were never recorded. The Association for Research and Enlightenment was formed on June 6, 1931, after 61 people attended a meeting. Cayce legally returned the house to Blumenthal after the new association was formed. Hugh Lynn proposed that they build a library of research into the phenomena and hold study groups, and that Cayce would do two readings a day. Hugh Lynn started a monthly bulletin for association members. The bulletin contained readings on general interest subjects, interesting cases, book reviews on psychic subjects, health hints from readings, and news of psychic phenomena in other fields.The first annual congress of the association was held in June 1932 after Hugh Lynn narrowed the mailing list to some 300 enthusiastic members. He included public readings by Cayce in the speakers he procured. The members of the conference were eager to start their own study groups. Cayce's attitudes and routines were kept in records. The data was published in a study about 100 cases of clairvoyance after everything was checked with the subjects of the readings. The scientists said that none of the experiments were done under test conditions. Hugh Lynn continued to build files of case histories, parallel studies in psychic phenomena, and research readings for the study groups.Association activities were not publicized. As a single unit was added on to the Cayce residence, members raised a building fund for an office, library, and vault. Visitors were not guided to the centre by a sign. Association membership ranged from 500 to 600. The turnover from year to year was less than the total. The Congress bulletin, which was a record of congress events, was a solid basis for the research work. Several thousand people received a mailing list of Cayce's activities.From many Oriental religions, members were drawn from the Roman, Greek, Syrian and Armenian Catholic churches. Cayce's philosophy was, if it makes you a better member of your church, then it's good, if it takes you away from your church, it's bad. Each organization is part of the A.R.E. because of the philosophy of the readings. It was not to function as an opposition to any religious organization. The goal of the work was universal and ancient. During the war, both sons entered the forces. They were married in 1941 and 1942.The first edition of There is a River by Thomas Sugrue was published in 1943. Public demand increased. The mailman couldn't carry all the mail, so Gertrude had to get it from the post office by car. Cayce increased his readings to four to six per day because Hugh Lynn was away in the forces. After the publication of a high-profile article in the magazine Coronet titled "Miracle Man of Virginia Beach", Cayce gained national prominence. He could not refuse to help the families of American soldiers who were missing in action during World War II. He increased the number of times he read to eight per day in order to make an impression.He said it took a toll on his health as it was emotionally draining. He was scolded by the readings for trying too much and they told him to limit his workload to two life readings a day or he would die. 1,385 readings were taken from June 1943 to June 1944. Cayce collapsed from strain. He was told to rest until he was dead or well. In September 1944, he had a stroke at the age of 67 and died on January 3, 1945. He is buried in Kentucky.Three months later, he died. From March 31, 1901 to September 17, 1944, the Association continued to cross-reference over 14,000 files of readings that had been taken during <mask>'s lifetime. The results were disseminated through the Association's publications to the members. His readings were not recorded until September 1923. According to an article published in the Post-Herald on October 10, 1922, Cayce said that he had given 8,056 readings as of that date and that he gave over 13,000,000 readings after that date. Fourteen thousand are available at the A.R.E. Along with background information, correspondence, and follow-up documentation, Cayce headquarters is in Virginia Beach.Other abilities attributed to Cayce include projection, prophesying, mediumship, and seeing auras. During his practice and readings, Cayce used astrology and dreamwork. Cayce said he became interested in learning more about these subjects after he was informed about the content of his readings. Cayce's clients included a number of famous people. Many Mansions and The World Within were written by Gina Cerminara. Many Lives, Many Masters was written by Brian Weiss. There is support for spiritualism and reincarnation in these books.<mask>'s work is supported by real life examples in Many Mansions. The Outer Limits of <mask>'s Power was published in 1971 and claimed to have an 85% success rate. Most of the book investigated cases where Cayce's readings were incorrect. Cayce had a physician who worked with him in the early 1900s. He was the oldest of seven children and was born in Lisbon, Ohio. He practiced medicine in Kentucky after graduating from the Cleveland College of Homeopathic Medicine. He practiced medicine until 1912.He opened a new practice in Honolulu, Hawaii in 1913 after traveling across the country. He practiced medicine in Palo Alto until the 1950s. He settled in San Marino, just outside Pasadena, around 1963, after retiring to southern California. On November 28, 1968, he died. The Discovery of Edgar Cayce was written by him. In 1964. Cayce advocated pseudohistorical ideas in his readings such as the existence of Atlantis and the discredited theory of polygenism.He was able to re-interpretation the history of life on earth. One of Cayce's claims was that of polygenism. Cayce claims that five human races were created on different parts of the Earth. Cayce accepted the existence of aliens and claimed that the red race developed quickly in Atlantis. Cayce claimed that "soul-entities" on Earth mixed with animals to produce giants that were as tall as twelve feet. The Skeptic's Dictionary states thatyce is one of the main people responsible for some of the silly ideas about Atlantis. Some of Cayce's discredited ideas, including his belief in a giant solar crystal, activated by the sun, and used to harness energy and provide power on Atlantis, and his prediction that in 1958 the United States would rediscover a death ray that had been used on Atlantis, were mentioned byLos Angeles, San Francisco and other cities in North America will be destroyed before New York. The Second Coming of Christ was predicted by Cayce. Skeptics say that Cayce's psychic abilities were not real. Medical health experts don't like Cayce's treatments, such as his promotion of pseudoscientific diet ideas and use of home remedies. Science writers and skeptics have pointed out that the evidence for Cayce's alleged clairvoyant powers comes from sensationalized newspaper articles, affidavits, anecdotes, and books rather than any empirical evidence that can be independently evaluated. All of the "verified" claims and descriptions from Cayce's trances can be traced to ideas found in the books that Cayce had been reading. There are little bits of information gleaned from here and there in the occult literature, spiced with occasional novelties from Cayce's unconscious."Uneducated beyond the ninth grade, Cayce acquired his broad knowledge through voracious reading and from this he wove elaborate tales."

Although Cayce was never subjected to proper testing, ESP pioneer Joseph B. Rhine was unimpressed. Cayce gave a reading for Rhine's daughter that was not accurate. When he provided diagnoses of subjects who had died since the letters requesting the readings were sent, Cayce was even wider off the mark. Cayce's treatments were useless at best and dangerous at worse, according to a science writer.Cayce had readings after the patient had died. <mask>'s Association for Research and Enlightenment was criticized for promoting pseudoscience.
